>Description:
On tlp(4) on DECchip 21041 on Cobalt Qube 2700, dhcpcd(8) cannot
detect carrier change of the interface.

Restarting dhcpcd(8), or executing "ifconfig tlp0 up"
before starting dhcpcd(8) works as expected.

Note in this case the DHCP server is connected via cross UTP cable
(no HUB in there) and the server has the following interface:
---
re0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0: RealTek 8100E/8101E/8102E/8102EL PCIe 10/100BaseTX (rev. 0x02)

re0: using 256 tx descriptors

rlphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

>How-To-Repeat:
See above.

>Fix:
No idea.
More generic method (dumb periodic polling etc.) is required for
such old non-MII PHY interfaces?

 Perhaps on non-MII interfaces, we should mark them as "not capable of =
 updating link"?  There is a flag for that in the extended flags, I =
 think.  Not sure if it would help, but might be worth a shot.

 dhcpcd-9.1.3 has grown the option --poll <msec=100> to poll the interface 
 periodically to see if it has carrier or not and take appropriate action.

 It should be noted that this is a workaround and the driver is really expected 
 to do better here.
